A unique event has taken place on the National Mall, where America 250 has set up state-by-state booths. These booths showcase US history and identity, with each state presenting itself in its own way. The displays vary in complexity, ranging from simple to elaborate.

The National News Desk has visited all of the booths, which number over 50. This effort provides a comprehensive look at how each state chooses to represent itself.

For more information and photos of the booths, readers can visit the America 250 Great American State Fair booths gallery, available from KTXS.
